2nd BOMBING SUSPECT CAPTURED ALIVE

The Boston Marathon bombing suspect was captured alive but wounded
Friday night -- holed up in a boat in a suburban backyard following a
bloody rampage that left a cop dead and a daylong manhunt that shut down
the city.
The arrest of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, and the earlier
death of his brother during a firefight with cops, ended five days of
terror sowed by the double bombing at the marathon finish line, which
killed three people, wounded 176 and left the city of Boston on edge.
"We got him," Boston Mayor Tom Menino tweeted.
"CAPTURED!!!
The hunt is over. The search is done. The terror is over. And justice
has won," the Boston Police Department said on its Twitter account.

Police arrested the 19-year-old at about 8:45 p.m., after finding him
holed up in a boat stored in the backyard of a Watertown residence. He
was led to an ambulance and driven to a hospital, where he is listed in
serious condition.
